oops, i forgot a few days

So I guess I'm a bad blogger, but whatever, we've been busy. I had to take care of some household things, and that meant waiting around for maintenance all morning twice this past week, and had other stuff to take care of, so I got a little behind, I guess I'll just put a few of the ones that I have saved and then post some more tomorrow.

Day 12 & 13, since it's after midnight

Just 1 week until our 1 year anniversary!! I'm getting super excited! I think we know where we are going to have dinner, if I could just remember the name of it, I'm horrible with names, but I'll find it! We were going to go to Kobe Steakhouse, in Waikiki, but I heard it's closed, and I also heard that you want to stay away from that area on Halloween, so I'm thinking that going to this Italian place closer to our house will be better. I haven't done any research, so I'm not completely sure if Kobe is closed, but the fact that Waikiki is a mad house on Halloween is enough to keep me close to home, seeing as I am not a fan of going there, don't get me wrong, I like the places there, and some of the restaurants are good, but there are just too many people, and I always get sick.

Day 10, 11 and a 50th post special

Here are two pictures, since I forgot to post yesterday, this is my father walking me down the aisle and then giving me away. We had a special part where both sets of parents vowed to welcome the other into their families, I thought it was really neat and a great and special way to involve his family.





So, here is a special something for it being our 50th post...

Day 8 & PTA is almost over!

The LT should be home by the end of the week, and I just can't wait. I miss him so much! And I should have him home until January. Although, he told me today that he might have to spend 9 weeks in OK. But it's not set in stone, and it might not happen. But if it does it'll be okay, because it's something he has to do for his work and career and it'll be okay. 

Here are some from before the ceremony, they're all of the LT with his cousins. I figured since I'd posted all pictures of me the last few days, I thought I'd post a few of him....

Day 5 - and what not

I went and hung out with my girl Holly today! She's teaching me how to crochet, and my fingers are pretty sore, I still don't get it, but I practiced when I got home...just not so lucky...and I got mad and gave up for the night, besides I'm tired, and I wanted to just knock this out before bed...I enjoyed hanging with her, she's such a cool cat!

The only prep pictures of the wedding I have are of me because the camera the LT had was dead. So I'm going to start with the actual wedding pictures now, so here is one of me and my sister getting ready for the BIG day!! :)

Day 4 Picture

The LT called me tonight, I wasn't expecting that since they're in the field and reception there is horrible, but it was a nice surprise! He said we needed to start thinking about our next duty station, which is weird because we still have 2 years left here, but 1 of those years he'll be deployed. We know that right after here we are headed to Fort Sill, OK for Captain's Career Course, but then we aren't sure what our next stop is. He was talking with fellow officers and they gave him some suggestions, and there really is only 1 that I like, but this isn't about me anymore, it's all about him and his career, although all of them would help his career and the 1 I like he really wants to go to because it's the 82nd Airborne and it'd mean he'd get to go to Airborne school, and that is something that he really wants. AND it would be close enough to family where we could go visit from time to time. I think it would be a great location because our plan is to start a family after Captain's Career Course, and Fort Bragg is 7 or 8 hours from both our families. But alas, we can't really control where we go, we can just give them a list of places...But the places we've narrowed it down to are places that will help with his career. Fort Sill, OK and Fort Hood, TX are the other two, and then some other's. He really wants to PCS to Alaska, but they have the same problem that Hawaii does, not much in way of Captain's spots for a Field Artillery Captain...And we're so far from family now, that I don't think he'd like to be away from family again. I love my family and his, but I do like it just being the two of us. Especially since it's our first year of marriage! Anyways, we have plenty of time to figure it out, and really, we'll make the best out of where ever the Army sends us! 

Now for the picture, it's not a picture of us, but it's from the wedding!! :)


These were my shoes, they hurt like heck, but they were super cute, and they matched the Pink color I picked out PERFECTLY! :) And I already owned them so I didn't need to go buy new shoes!!

Wordless Wednesday - Day 3 of photo tribute

Day 2 of the engagement/wedding picture Upload

Here is another favorite of our engagement pictures! I'm going to have to pull the wedding pictures from my computer and put them on the big computer later, I thought I put them on this one, but alas, I didn't...so until I do that, we'll do engagement pictures, which I love them, the LT's friend from BOLC 3 took them, he did such a great job!!


I have been emailing with a lady who is going to make a replica of our cake, she's going to either do half chocolate and half strawberry or one layer chocolate and one layer strawberry...I have no idea how I want to do it...I told her just whatever was easiest for her...but I kinda like the one layer of each! I bet that would taste AMAZING!!!!!! And I tried some of her cake yesterday at a friends house yesterday, she made it for a party that was Friday, and it was still so moist yesterday, and it was just so yummy!!!!

The LT is still gone, but all is good! He's fine, I'm fine!

It's been a LONG month

September was a LONG month, and October hopefully won't drag on like September did...but we'll see....

The LT worked SO much in September, it's like he got back from PTA and had 1 weekend off and then worked NON STOP until it was time for him to leave again. But in all reality he had more than 1 weekend off, he had 2, out of what, 4...and none of the 4 day weekends everyone else had he got, so that sucked, and now he's at PTA and doesn't get weekends off either...I just hope when he gets home the rest of October and November will be a little more relaxed, or he at least gets some time off on weekends...he was working 12 hour days, and really it was over 12 hours because he'd go to the exercise at the MRX and then either before or after, sometimes both, he'd have to go to his office for a while, YUCK! And this isn't like a civilan job where you get paid over time...which would be nice...but it's all good. He learned a lot in the exercise he did at the MRX and he is learning a lot now at PTA. I just can't wait for him to come HOME!!

Today his cousin got married, well, I guess yesterday now (10/10/10) Just want to take a moment and wish the new Mr. and Mrs. Matthew P. the best!! We hate that we couldn't make it, but we were there in spirit and thought, and we just know that it was an amazing ceremony and that you'll just have the best life together!!! :)

I can't believe that in just 20 days it'll be our 1 year anniversary. It's so crazy to think....Here is an engagement shot!! I think I'll post a picture from our engagement shoot and wedding every day or so until our anniversary! :)


 The LT will be back in time for our anniversary, this year! So we're going to do something special. We were going to spend the weekend downtown at a hotel, but to save money we're just going to go to dinner somewhere nice and then come back home and eat cake, which I need to get picked out and made, I just haven't gotten word back from the person I asked to make it.
